A method for communication control of a USB-equipped device that has a vendor identification (VID), a product identification (PID) and a device identification number (DID) that is different from the VID and PID. The method comprises transmitting the DID, together with the VID and the PID to a host computer when the USB-equipped device is plugged in; identifying in the host computer the model of the USB-equipped device based on the transmitted VID and PID and identifying a USB-equipped device as a target of communication among a plurality of USB-equipped devices using the DID transmitted, thereby to established communication with said USB-equipped device. <IMAGE>
